Van Zant, there are scant few Conservatives in the Faux Beaufort County GOP; consisting of those people who possess little political /governing knowledge, and even less humility in real terms.

The Republican Party, universal, will never survive this abrupt turn towards RINOism.

I have been doing this far longer than any of these "party people," actually, all of them as individuals, and I am positive that this construct of disingenuous politics stomping all over Conservative Ideals / Values will never succeed in Beaufort County if this county truly is home to enough Good People willing to make that real difference in setting a formative approach to our Conservative Republican revival here in Beaufort County.

Beaufort County voters should be especially wary of Berger-backed candidates due to Berger's role in gerrymandering our county a few years ago into a Democrat-dominated majority black district so he could get rid of Senator Bill Cook. That makes Phil Berger an enemy of Beaufort County. Berger was calling the shots in that redistricting and he wanted to push through a far left green energy bill but knew that Senator Cook was very knowledgable in that subject and would fight for the ratepayers against that nonsense. So Berger gerrymandered Beaufort County to get rid of Cook so he could pass that liberal John Kerry / Al Gore / Greta Thunberg bill. That also makes Berger an enemy of conservatives and of electric ratepayers.

NEVER BBRGER (or Berger flunkies).

Reality check! One of those Brinson mailings came out today claiming "Bob will ALWAYS vote for tax cuts for Eastern North Carolina families and small businesses". Funny thing, that is NOT what he did in his partial term as a New Bern alderman. His actual record in public office shows that Bob Brinson in reality voted to RAISE taxes for the taxpayers of New Bern.

Mike Speciale is the candidate who in eight years in the legislature voted repeatedly for tax cuts and never for a tax increase. Bob Brinson is the candidate who in less than two years as an alderman has already voted for a tax INCREASE.

Lets look at the facts and the record, not Brinson's false claims.

Oh and a second mailing came out today, too, from Berger's non-transparent dark money group that claimed Brinson is "transparent". How crazy is that? A non-transparent dark money group claiming their candidate is "transparent"!

CV: The Leftists are not getting this news just yet.

Give them another 2.5 years, and all this real news, unbeknownst to Leftists now, will be finally be revealed in measured doses, by their favored protective news sources then.

This is nothing but election interference by the Raleigh political establishment into OUT state senate primary. Lets tell these outsiders and thier little lap dog to get lost. Our district senate seat is NOT for sale.

What just fell apart was the Biden subterfuge that these transactions were loan repayments. The evidence required by IRS laws and regs for something to be a loan are the loan documents. James Biden just admitted that there are none of those.

This issue is before Congress but not the courts as yet. How much you wanna bet that the corrupt Biden DOJ and IRS looks the other way? They would not do that for a taxpayer whose name is not Biden.

In a Republican primary, nobody is going to admit that they are anything but a conservative, and that includes the frequent collaborators with the liberal Democrats like Thom Tillis or Phil Berger. You always have to look at records, instead of campaign rhetoic. Like in the state senate primary, Mike Speciale has a long and distinguished record of fighting for conservative principles in the NC House, while his opponent Brinson talks conservative but about the only actual record Brinson has in his short term on the New Bern City Council is of voting to raise taxes and that is NOT conservative. Or there is Mark Robinson who talks a good game on conservative issues but when one looks at his actual record, he is mostly "missing in action", another phoney.

ANd yet, in our crooked two-tier "justice" system, Trump is persecuted when he did nothing wrong, while the Bidens go scot free for massive wrongdoing in running a corrupt enterprise.

Biden is the one following the fascist playbook, censorship, gun control, and the corporate state. That is where the threat of dictatorship originates. "MAGA" is a populist right ideology very similar to those now surging in Europe. It is the very opposite of fascism. The other huge threat of fascism today is globalism, who have adopted the corporate state ideology of last century's fascism. It is no coincidence that Klaus Schwab's father was a financial contributor to the German Nazi Party.
